Epidural Injections: The Weakness in My Bones

So did the epidural injections accelerate the bone density loss in my lumbar spine? I couldn’t prove it in a court of law. Since I didn’t have a DXA scan until seven months after my last injection, I don’t know for sure if the injections were correlated with bone loss. Even if I could prove causation, I don’t think any doctor knows for sure what effect that will have on my fracture risk thirty years from now.
